Microalbuminuria (26-250 mg/d) is considered to be an indicator of incipient diabetic nephropathy in humans in insulin-dependent diabetes (IDD). However, before microalbuminuria is observed, glomerular alterations, such as glycosylation of the glomerular basement membrane and glomerular hyperfiltration, in IDD may result in increased filtration of albumin before any observed increase in albumin excretion. Glomerular and tubular albumin kinetics were examined in streptozotocin (65 mg/kg body wt, i.v.) diabetic, Munich-Wistar rats at 7-10 (untreated) and 50-70 d (poorly controlled with small doses of insulin) after the onset of diabetes and compared with nondiabetic controls. Additional rats in each condition received acute lysine treatment to prevent tubular protein reabsorption. Urinary albumin excretion and nonvascular albumin distribution volumes were measured in the renal cortex and compared with morphometric measurements of interstitial space and the proximal tubule to assess intracellular uptake of albumin in the proximal tubule. Urinary albumin excretion under anesthesia was not different in 7-10-d IDD versus controls (19 +/- 3 vs. 20 +/- 3 micrograms/min) but increased in the 50-70-d IDD (118 +/- 13 micrograms/min, P < 0.05). Lysine treatment resulted in increased albumin excretion compared with respective nontreatment in 7-10-d IDD (67 +/- 10 micrograms/min, P < 0.05) but not in controls (30 +/- 6 micrograms/min) or in 50-70-d IDD (126 +/- 11 micrograms/min). Glomerular filtration rate was increased both in 7-10-d IDD (2.7 +/- 0.1 ml/min, P < 0.05) and in 50-70-d IDD (2.6 +/- 0.1 ml/min, P < 0.05) compared with control (2.2 +/- 0.1 ml/min). Calculated urinary space albumin concentrations increased early in IDD with 2.5 +/- 0.4 mg% in 7-10-d IDD and 4.9 +/- 0.6 mg% in 50-70-d IDD compared with control (1.4 +/- 0.3 mg%). The increase in filtration of albumin is in excess of that attributable to hyperfiltration before increased albumin excretion early in diabetes. In 50-70-d IDD, absolute tubular reabsorption of albumin is decreased, correlating to the decrease in brush border height of the proximal tubule.Images
